Debra Davis - The Way Things Used To Be lyrics

It's you and me, and so much in between

All tangled up in the passage of time

It's trust and blame, and feelings with no name

Fighting it out in the back of my mind

And I'm looking for you in each familiar place

Dreaming of you but I come up empty when I wake

Oh how I reach, for the way things used to be

Oh I believe, in the way things used to be

Oh how I need, to find you next to me

The way things used to be

It's hope and fear both ringing in my ear

The bells of the lonely shaking my soul

It's hide and seek, the words we never speak

The heart is a traveler headed for home

And I'm looking for you in each familiar place

Dreaming of you but I come up empty when I wake

Oh how I reach, for the way things used to be

Oh I believe, in the way things used to be

Oh how I need, to find you next to me

The way things used to be

A word, a call, am I climbing just to fall

The light's in your eyes, am I fading from view?

And I'm looking for you in each familiar place

Dreaming of you but I come up empty when I wake

Oh how I reach, for the way things used to be

Oh I believe, in the way things used to be

Oh how I need, to find you next to me

The way things used to be
